The US Suddenly Has An Incompetent Military - Who Is Responsible?

[Harry Dresden]

The US military planned and implemented the final evacuations. All criticism of the that implementation ultimately falls on our professional military. That didn't change from 2020 to 2021.

you are talking about something different then what i was talking about....

Bwahahahaa. Kuwait shot down 3 of our planes with our missiles as admitted to by the President. Spin that however you want. I put the link so you could get all the details. It was a $400-500M disaster.

No one was hurt. Kuwait and other Gulf states are under attack by Iran. Friendly fire incidents happen in war.

I didnt use the word sneak, are you Deluded or Delldude?
Clogged toilets and laundry dryers doesn't send the largest US carrier in the world home... or maybe it does if you are incompetent.
The fact you are trying to spin all those disasters as normal if utterly insane. Its a cult.

Apparently the toilet systems on that aircraft carrier were a longstanding problem. Who ran the Navy in 2023, 2024?
Stop trying to make normal mishaps sound like bigger problems than they are. The carrier is in Crete for repairs.

USS Gerald R. Ford docks in Greece for port call after fire

The world's largest aircraft carrier experienced a non-combat fire on March 12 that reportedly damaged almost 100 sleeping berths.

www.navytimes.com

The Ford has dealt with repeated malfunctions of its vacuum system, which transports and disposes wastewater. The carrier has called for assistance with the poorly performing toilets 42 times since 2023, with 32 calls coming in 2025 alone,

Key Details on Maintenance and Deployment:

Current Situation: The ship is in Souda Bay, Greece, for repairs after an extended operational period, though it remains "fully mission capable".

Scheduled Overhaul: Upon completion of its deployment, the USS Ford is planned to enter a maintenance overhaul at the Norfolk Naval Shipyard.

Expected Upgrades: The overhaul is expected to include significant upgrades, similar to the recent 11-month maintenance period for the USS Bush.

Kuwait shot down 3 of our planes with our missiles as admitted to by the President.

And?

The fact you are trying to spin all those disasters as normal if utterly insane.

No spin except on your end....You're still an asshole.

Why would we send a carrier to war only to pull it out a week later with clogged toilets or to do scheduled maintenance? Incompetent waste of money if that is what happened and putting lives at risk, They are amateurs. total buffoons.

I've spent many nights on a US carrier. I didnt call those people buffoons dipshit. I called the people who sent those brave sailors to the middle east on a leaky bucket so broken it had to limp into dock a week later buffoons. They are buffoons.

It's normally stationed in the Med. It's strike group was part of the mission......mission accomplished heading for scheduled maintenance in Norfolk in May.
It remained operational even with the fire.

Some say that IDF senior officers have been commonly seen in the Pentagon for years. The Comptroller of the Pentagon in 2001 was an ordained Rabbi named Dov Zakheim.

Your post is right on, but this process of corruption of the US military has been going on for decades. One man cannot be blamed.

Isn't that what the Neo-GOP all parroted, propagated, and still contends happened in 2021? The Military evacuated not only our last 2,500 soldiers, but over a hundred thousand of our Afghan allies in the final weeks of our 20 year long occupation? How many of our Afghan supporters did Trump evacuate in 2020 when he withdrew 80% of our forces there?

The USA wasn't tucking tail and running away completely with all our troops and gear.
Trump's draw down was integrated with training and equipping Afghanistan military to pick up the slack.

 

[EdwinAMartin]

And don't forget he is also busy clubbing baby seals and eating baby pandas. It cracks me up that so many here think by trashing Trump ad nauseam on this forum they are accomplishing something. We can't vote for him in 2028 so this chapter is closed and we can only look forward to who deserves our votes in 2028.

Absolutely. And, he and Netanyahu still have time to personally murder Pali children and eat them, too.

Don't waste your time. He brings that up every so often. Thread killer.

I don't expect him to change his tune, or respond intelligently.
I present that post to clear the subject for others reading here.

It seems to me the dumocraps don't even want to be taken seriously anymore. It may be that they are really calling out for help as they lose their minds. How can someone be so obsessed with Trump that they can't think of anything else, and everything bad that happens is caused by Trump? My guess is Vance or Rubio will take the WH in 2028. How long after Trump is gone will they continue to post Trump Hate 24/7 here? My guess is Trump will be dead by the end of the decade, but they will still be blaming stuff on Trump well into the 40's.

Its 6am you must be in Russia. All the links have the news source. There isnt an event on there that we dont all know the main facts. That is a list of monumental F ups that would have the right wingers howling if a dem were in charge. As it is, you guys dont care about competence. You only care about rooting for an orange crazy man.

I'm on the West(Left) coast, and up very late.

Only a couple items on your list would ALSO have some of the Right wingers howling if a dem were in charge.
Other's of us are more knowledgeable on the subject/topics of your OP and have realistic perspectives on what they really are and were 'fault' lies.

Been that way for decades now. They're an arrogant criminal syndicate now, with thousands of their judges still warming benches, so they just revel in their insanity these days, it's a display of power.

It was the same military from 2020 that planned and executed the final evacuation in 2021.

House GOP blames Biden for chaotic Afghan exit while ignoring Trump administration's role

House Republicans blamed the Biden administration for the chaotic and deadly U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021, accusing the White House of ignoring Afghan, allied and military advice and conducting a subsequent coverup. The White House called the report partisan and dismissed the...

Same military, but different C-in-C and a more stupid and crazy one at that.
Trump at least let the military handle the details be orderly about it.
Dildo Biden ordered a rushed job and didn't allow for proper planning, etc.

It was already in the region. It was the CBG on station when the war started.

Even you know that is not right. Right wingers exploit any mishap to spin a narrative. For God's sake you nearly shit your drawers that Biden waited till a balloon got over the water to shoot it down, while Trump missed 3 of them totally on his watch and now you guys are acting like shooting down 3 of our own planes is a simple whoops.

I am regularly left speechless by the hypocrisy of conservatives.
